Women Founders Shaping Tech in the Business of Interior Design

Your Technology Roadmap. For most interior designers, those words trigger dread, not direction. That ends here.

What's New, What's Next is built around one question: what's actually moving this industry forward. No panel answers that more directly than this one. A generation of women founders is building the technology this industry actually needs - not work arounds, not software borrowed from adjacent industries, but platforms architected around how designers really work: the project timelines, the client trust cycles, the procurement complexity, and the creative process itself.

This panel puts those founders in one room for a direct conversation about what they built, why they built it, and what interior designers deserve from the technology companies serving them. With a full floor of programming competing for your time, this is the hour that pays you back.

Walk away with:

  • What a technology roadmap really is.

  • How to build one for your firm.

  • Why investing in technology is no longer optional.

Moderating: LuAnn Nigara
